Court Rules Marriage Must Be Redefined Under 14th Amendment. Why That’s Wrong.: "Today the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals issued an important ruling on Utah’s marriage amendment.

In a 2-1 split decision, the 10th circuit ruled that Utah’s marriage amendment defining marriage as the union of a man and a woman violates the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution."
